The journal feature does take up some finite amount of space. But you haven't reported any space numbers for anyone knowledgable to be able to tell you if what you are seeing is a feature or a problem. I did a naive search issue for this in redhat's bugzilla. I don't see any reported problems about the size of the journal growing unexpectedly over time. -jef
